2018 Minor League Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Bieber tonight vs. Binghamton

7.0 IP, 4H, 0 BB, 8 K

85 pitches - 64 strikes

Fastball up to 94

Fastball to end the AB was 91

Pretty good. Still just 22 years old.

I think he gets a September call up this season! Good shot of replacing Tomlin next season inthe rotation.
 
I tried searching. Still no update on McKenzie?

I don’t see anything either to be honest. He is listed at Lynchburg so it’s a good possibility he starts the season at high A rather than AA like we projected.
 
You're not going to get a minor league injury update, maybe ever.

They're under no obligation to make it public, and they often don't unless he goes under the knife.

No
 
@Derek

We both agree he should be at AA this season that’s no issue (We differ on when he should be in the pros lol) It’s not gonna hurt him or either of our timelines if he starts out at A ball for a couple starts and finishes the season at AA coming off of an injury.
 
When/if he's healthy, he'll be at Double-A.

He'll likely pitch in extended until he is. They don't usually make rehab starts at a lower level like High-A.
 
All this pitching talk...

Will Benson cleaned his swing up this winter. Less moving parts, more using his natural size/strength to provide his pop. Paying off for him.

How is his defense looking? I wasn’t sure when he was coming out where exactly he would project done the line

For some reason I at first read praying for him stead of paying off for him lol. I was going to say that is beyond dedication to be praying for minor leaguers who may or may not ever see a tribe jersey.
 
Looks like my favorite hitter, Nolan Jones is currently on the shelf. 7-day DL

Had 3 walks in 2 games
